Hi GB!
The little Moka pot is a takeoff on a couple of earlier moka types the Stella in particular. It was a design study for a possible production run of 100.. The Pot would work like any Moka Pot. The ball is for equalizing forces of flow.
I do commission work occasionally.
Cheers
Richard

Thanks for the reply RP, would you be able to produce the product or would need a factory, one of my 1st design is actually for the moka pot, actually and attachment for it, if i had a shop I could produce it myself because the design is fairly simple, however, I feel that it would appeal to the masses, it's like one of those how did I live without, or why didn't i think of that kinds of gadgets ;),I researched the stella, now I understand the function,that's quite a piece,does it's espresso brewing match it looks??Those would do great in certain restaurants...... well thanks for any suggestions....

Hi GB
Why not email me with only "patent protected" design ideas. I do bid on and make parts exactly to the dimensions on a drawing. That way you are protected and so am I. You would need a factory and I am not able to make or develop products on a pay later basis. Watch out for "Inventco" type places they only do a fancy book with drawings and first protection at the patent office. They do not actually get your patent and they charge a huge amount.
Cheers

Thanks Sir for the knowledge and info, once I get my package together I will email you, I think you'll like it judging by your work, thanks for your time, also pay later sucks, sometimes later never comes, I'm hoping at least with this design I have a few investors, they will endorse it, and get the ball rolling.....
